The Maple Gang: I have to archive this cache until I get to re-establish the first stage with a more permanent way of hiding the stage coordinates, I will unarchive once fixed, sorry for the inconvenience.

Geocache Description:

Nice easy walk along snowmobile/forestry trail

This cache is set in a demonstration forest for the University of Mass. it has a nice trail mostly used for walking and some snowmobiles in winter. at points it goes along the mill valley golf course, please stay on trail except at cache stage areas, you won't have to wander too far off. this is a 3 stage with the final being an ammo box. I found that the 2nd stage was very hard to get a good reading on, and if I am far off please send me an email so I can update, I will give a good hint at the start of the cache to help the first few check the coords. 1st stage is an unusual one.

FTF is a Dunkin Donuts $10 gift card stuck into the log book.
there is alot of good swag including a new keyboard/case and software for older palm pilots, mine was too new for it

Also there is a bug that needs to move along, and some goodies that were sent to us by a firefighter from the Kennedy Space Center who hosted one of our travel bugs for awhile.

Coordinates are for the 1st stage.
please park off rt 181 at the entrance to the Umass demonstration forest at the snowmobile trailhead

Enjoy the hunt
